I don't know anything of Mr. Edmund, but this ripping on him for having attended UC Berkeley, one of the most notable and prestigious public Universities in the nation, is misplaced.
UC Berkeley is a haven for leftists. So are Harvard, Yale, University of Wisconsin, University of Kansas in Lawrence, Brown, Columbia, etc. UC Berkeley also has many moderates and Conservatives among the student body.
Yeah, we all know that UC Berkeley isn't Baylor or Liberty University. But attendance at UC Berkeley alone does not make one a surefire liberal "gay-mafia" conspirator any more than attending most major top-100 Universities in the USA.
FWIW, I did not attend UC Berkeley, and I find the area around the school to be decidedly unpleaseant. I really have no affinity for UCB, but find this particular argument to be missing the point about the liberal state of college education in our country.
Well maybe a physics major at Berkeley, or even an economics major could escape the brain washing, but not a poli sci major. But there is a lot more damning evidence than his being a Berkeley drop out. The rabid gay activist wrote on his blog that he had flown the kid with the IMs out so he could verify everything and have it all ready to go when the time was right. The blogger was bemoaning the fact that he had sent out the other emails and gotten no reaction, but now he had all his ducks in a row and was going to drop it closer to the mid-term election.
